Montgomery said, “If the Federal Communication Commission changes their negative rules,” Baxter County Sheriff’s office will revise the feasibility to replace the prisoner phone system. “
It is expected that the idea will create some sympathy in the mega feed halls of the FCC headquarters. But the commission’s two Republicans actually voted Goodwill Last year’s order to control the rate. Even the current FCC Chair Brandon Car Agreed Prisoner phone calls were often “excessive” in US prisons, and private operators behind these systems represent “market failure”. He then voted in favor of straight, old school pricing hats.
In fact, Kerry offered a strong defense of prisoner calling: “[I often] Listen to families who faced difficulties to maintain contact with their loved ones. I also heard from former prisoners who identified a reduction in mental and emotional health, which could result in a shortage of external communication. In addition, studies have repeatedly shown that increasing communication between prisoners and their families, friends, and other external resources helps reduce the maintenance rate. “
So Montgomery cannot easily get this decision. (On the other hand, Kerr just launched a launch “Delete! Delete! Delete!” Move Focus on cutting the rules, so who knows.)
Baxter County claims that FCC’s decision means “phone services are no longer possible”. However, in 2018, when the Baxter County wanted to extend his prison and did not have cash, officials found a way to make this possible way to approve a 1 % sales tax collected between April and September this year.

Montgomery said he would add some additional personalities to jail to compensate for a shortage of phone calls, and last week his office Posted a new schedule. But the more positive personality can be contacted, it is still good in a busy world that there is a reasonable price phone call option-you know, the type of kind that is “possible” to offer in most US prisons.
